1. INTRODUCTION

Introduction

During the last few years, the society has become aware of the revolution that new technologies have meant for the development of the different areas of life.

Communication processes, administrative management, consumption, production.. have been completely transformed from the appearience of new technologies and the internet.

IntroductionThrough this unit, we will examine how the job profiles required in the labor market have changed and how we should take advantage of the resources that the Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) offer a level of training and employment.

In general, the different technological tools constitute an element of support by promoting the performance of a job adequately and effectively.

IntroductionThese type of tools allow:

o A better organization and planning work

tasks.

o Greater autonomy and independence

through the different elements and

support materials available.

o Greater coordination, document

management, personnel management.

o Improvement of communication.

IntroductionTraditionally, people with disabilities have been

in social disadvantage due to the difficulties and

barriers for the performance of jobs.

On many occasions, the companies highlighted

the difficulties that people with disabilities have

for the acquisition of skills or the generalization

of learnings, the problems of organization and

planning, the high support needs that limit the

autonomy and Independence.

Introduction

However, the application of these tools in the workplace and training programs and the results obtained demonstrate the contrary.

People can be independent in the performance of different tasks, through the necessary adaptations are often related to the incorporation of the technological tools in the workplace.
